The voice of some reason, from the hills of South Dakota. Interestingly enough, they also have a “plan” ready and waiting. I’m curious: What other contingencies are local law enforcement offices actively planning for? How about a plan for the Catholics, in the event that a pedophile priest abuse an altar boy…in that case we will need to remove all Catholics in the area, as their religion is abusive.

The possibility that a raid on a Texas polygamist compound stemmed from hoax calls to a shelter makes local law enforcement here more cautious about what would trigger a response to allegations of abuse at the sect’s ranch in the Black Hills.

“If I got the probable cause in, I would have to make sure it was valid — make real sure it was valid before we go down there and do anything,” Custer County Sheriff Rick Wheeler said of the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints near Pringle.

“If I’ve learned anything at all, it’s to make sure we have a reliable source of activity that’s against the law. Until that happens, I can’t do anything in there.”

Wheeler said he doesn’t “look for anything to happen in the near future,” but has a plan ready that includes the state Department of Social Services.

In Colorado, Montezuma County Sheriff Gerald Wallace said he has done the same thing for an FLDS ranch with an estimated 25 to 50 people near Mancos.

“I think it’s raised the level a little bit for everybody on what to do,” he said of the Texas raid.

“If another call came in with the same circumstances as that one, I think we would do a little more in-depth research at first.”
